Do this as a list comprehension?

Is it possible to write a list comprehension for this so as to produce a list of two-item tuples? base_scores = range(8, 19) score_costs = [0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 3, 3] print zip(base_scores, score_costs) I can't think of how the structure of the list comprehension would work in this case,
